People who say that men shouldn't cry.

People saying "what it is is".

People making fun of another person due to the accent he/she speaks with and not understanding that some people can't form certain sounds that are used in English.

Eddy Murphy did an excellent comedy routine with that. I think it was in delirious. He talked as an American making fun of a Chinese guy in a restaurant and then the Chinese guy making fun of him later in the back. Very funny

Alot - I hate that, it makes me want to choke the crap out of the person who wrote it every time I see it- It's "a" *space* "lot" - A lot - Not alot -

And people who cant understand "your" and "you're" - It reminds me of that quote from the movie Pulp Fiction, when Sam Jackson is grilling Bret the burger-eating kid- "English, motherfucker, can you speak it?", except with me it would be: "You speak it, why the hell can't you write it?"

And this one- Makes me cringe every time I hear it- It's the most powerful, destructive force in mankind's history, and the man who has his finger on the world's greatest arsenal can't even say the word correctly- It's like nails on a chalkboard for me-

Okay. . .I HATE this. . .

I love movies. We watch movies alot here, especially during dust storms when we can't fly. . .

I hate it when we all sit down to watch a movie, we are all there together, and the ONE GUY who's been sitting there with us the whole time, keeps asking over and over, "Well, who's this guy?" "Why did she do that?" "Where are they going now?" Like. . .the rest of us WROTE the movie or something and have some secret information that he doesn't.

AND ANOTHER DAMN THING. . .
I hate it when we're sitting there watching a movie, and there's always the ONE dumbass that walks in, looks at the screen and has to ask, "So are there any titties in this movie? Does she get naked?" Then they sit there through the rest of the movie inserting dialogue that includes sexual innuendo, completely ruining the experience. We physically removed someone from our office the other day for doing that during "Serenity".

1) Ones - it is a singular, so you cannot have more than one of it.

2) All car drivers who are aged over 70 (especially if they wear caps). I think you should have to take a yearly driving test once you reach 70.

3) Spitting.

4) Having to pay for a tv licence when I never watch or listen to BBC channels.

'coats:

Since this thread, and the related 'what's your politics, cause mine are better' threads, are my pet peeve (actually, somewhat deeper than just a peeve), I'll simply one-up Annigerria's tag:

Quote:
Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving and revolving at 900 miles an hour... The Galaxy Song, Meaning of Life, Monty Python

...with the concluding line from the same song (one of my absolute favorites from the movie, along with "The Penis Song"):

"And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space, 'cause there's bugger all down here on Earth!" (Slams fridge door)

"Makes ya' think doesn't it?"
"Yeah, makes you feel sort of, insignificant..."
(Pauses) "Can we have your liver then?"
"Yeah alright, you talked me into it."

Respectfully,

zoid

Static, have you been watching movies with my mother-in-law?

My pet peeve, or rather, one of my pet peeves

, are really, really loud car stereos where all you can hear/feel is the bass ratteling the pictures on the walls. It's illegal for someone to come into my house uninvited - what's so different about their noise coming into my house?? Trespassing is trespassing, far as I'm concerned. Show a little respect for your fellow human-beings, and turn it down!!!
